HYPER BARIC OXYGEN CHAMBER

INTRODUCTION

HBOT involves breathing 100% (pure) oxygen while in a special space called a hyperbaric chamber. The air pressure inside is raised to a level that is higher than normal air pressure. The increased air pressure in the chamber helps the lungs collect more oxygen.

USE OF HYPER BARIC OXYGEN CHAMBER THERAPY

Hyperbaric oxygen (HBO) therapy involves subjecting patients to pure oxygen under high pressures to increase the oxygen content in the blood.

This can be beneficial to help fight infections, improve wound healing and increase oxygen supply to areas of poor or compromised blood flow.

HBO therapy is often used for patients with chronic infections that don’t respond to usual care, along with a number of acute life-threatening infections.

It’s also used to help heal complex wounds such as diabetic foot ulcers, wounds involving infected bone, tissue flaps and grafts used to cover large surgical wounds.

HOW IS THE THERAPY PERFORMED?

The hyperbaric oxygen chamber is a clear, 7-foot-long plastic tube with a padded table that slides into the tube. During the two-hour session, the chamber is gradually pressurized with pure oxygen, typically rising to 2.5 times the normal atmospheric pressure.

You may experience the same sensation in your ears that you feel when you ascend in an airplane, which can be minimized by yawning. Throughout the session, you’ll be monitored by wound care clinicians who are specially trained in hyperbaric medicine.

The chamber will be slowly depressurized at the end of the session. It’s normal to feel tired and lightheaded following treatment, but this usually fades within a few minutes.

CONSIDERATION IN HYPER BARIC OXYGEN THERAPY

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can be life saving for conditions such as air gas embolism (air bubbles in the blood stream) and certain aggressive infections.

HBO therapy is also often used in combination with other treatments for chronic infections and/or poorly healing wounds.

Additionally, patients with scuba diving injuries such as decompression sickness or carbon monoxide poisoning may benefit from HBO therapy, depending on the type and severity of their symptoms.
